This may be better suited to the Religious section but....

Dr. Pepper posted an ad that now has a caused an uproar.

I will leave it there....... as I slowly walk away and shake my head in pain.

Some people have no sense of humor.

Some people have no sense

That's about as far as that sentence needs to go in this case. -.-

[Mongo Skruddgemire]

Don't need to say much else do I?

[lordlundar]

I think Coca-Cola gives Dr. Pepper FAR to much credit, but that's as far as that goes.

[Greenday]

I don't get it. What's so offensive about it?

[Rapscallion]

Evolution. Also lack of baby jesus.

It's NOT offensive at all. But oh no we can't promote the theory of evolution, which is based in scientific fact. It's much better to just pander to the faith in religion that people just appeared *poof* in one day.

Whatever.

I like the comments protesting that 'we didn't come from apes'.

This is not what evolutionary theory proposes.

If you think science is your enemy, at least know your enemy before you open your ignorant mouth.

I've never been a fan of the carbonated prune juice. No I am not!!!

[Rageaholic]

Wow so much stupid.

Don't they know what a joke is? It would be like me saying an ad promotes Christianity because they have a cartoon Jesus selling something. Then again, they'd probably get offended by that too.

If creationists weren't ignorant, they wouldn't be creationists.

I highly doubt you'll ever find a creationist anywhere who actually knows what the theory of evolution actually proposes.

But as much as creationists decry science, they're only too happy to take advantage of all the sweet benefits that godless science has to offer.

I keep remembering the Tshirt the woman was wearing in Paul, of Jesus shooting Darwin. Basically violating every single thing about their faith and proud of it.
